Policy
The practice may use an artificial intelligence programme to transcribe GP and patient consultations for efficiency.
The programme will record the consultation and transcribes it into text to make this quicker and easier to transfer to the medical record.
The clinician will ensure the transcript is accurate and then copy this into the record.
They will ensure that the transcript is deleted from the transcribe programme once it is entered in the medical records.
The programme will not store any patient information.
Patient consent is not needed as this will form part of the practice admin workflow.
This information is also in our privacy notice which is on our practice website for patient information.
